Descripción general

Marriage Is So Gay [MISG] is a t-shirt company with a heart, conscience and (stylish) sense of humor.

We love our friends - we love marriage - and we think marriage is so gay.

We only make t-shirts we would wear and that we'd share with our friends. In fact, it's why we created the "Marriage Is So Gay" t-shirt -- so we could support our friends - in style. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each MISG T-shirt is donated to organizations promoting marriage equality.

Starting with number "1", each t-shirt's label features a unique, handwritten number noting the number of people sporting the tee to date. We will host an equality party when our t-shirt counter hits 100,000 people supporting marriage equality. People love this numbering campaign and regularly post to our Facebook noting the t-shirt number in the tag of their tee which we encourage.

Our company’s t-shirt features the MISG logo on a black American Apparel tee which has been our only offering to date. We are about to release two new tees in blue and red.

We are looking to transform what has until now been a single t-shirt into a full-fledged MISG product line that will come to feature t-shirts in different colors and eventually other products such as tank tops, kids tees, and baby onesies. As part of this transformation we have recently commissioned a photoshoot that shows the new direction of the line http://www.tabblo.com/studio/storie…w/1774139/

We are looking for a website design that will:
1) Increase conversion rates of visitors into purchasers
2) Draw people in and encourage them to connect with us on Facebook and Twitter and encourage them to post the number of the tee they receive in the mail on Facebook
3) Make visitors feel they are not “just” purchasing an ordinary t-shirt - they are participating in and buying into something a lot greater.

Cuéntanos a qué tipo de público quieres llegar

People who support marriage equality; yep, that includes our many straight supporters.

Requisitos

- Looking for 3 PSDs – one for the homepage, color page and product page (or 2 psds if your design combines the color page and product page features).
